Biology

Physiology

Vullaby resembles a baby vulture. It has a plump, stout body, tiny wings, and stumpy feet. Its neck is short and supports a round head devoid of any feathers except for an enormous crest on the top. It seems to be wearing a broken skull as a diaper-like undergarment, hence its species name.

Gender differences

Vullaby is a female-only species. Rufflet is regarded as a male counterpart, but is a separate species that cannot produce Vullaby Eggs.

Special abilities

Vullaby are uncommonly skilled at finding skeletons and using them as armor.

Behavior

It has the tendency to use broken skeleton pieces, most likely skulls, as diaper-like clothing to protect its rump. It will chase after weaker creatures.

Trivia

Vullaby can learn Fly despite its Black Pokédex entry saying that its wings are too small for it to fly.

It is impossible to get a 'seen' Pokédex entry for Vullaby or Mandibuzz in Pokémon White without trading with another player. In Pokémon White 2, it is impossible to get a 'seen' Pokédex entry for Vullaby only.
